S.F. Chronicle’s Sporting Green honored by APSE

For the third time in four years, The San Francisco Chronicle’s Sporting Green has been named one of the top daily sports sections in the country by the Associated Press.

In its annual contest, which concluded in Indianapolis this past week, the APSE cited The Chronicle’s Sporting Green as one of the Top 10 daily sports sections among the most circulated papers in 2013, the highest honor given by the organization in that category.

The Chronicle also garnered an honorable mention for the special section it produced in advance of Super Bowl XLVII, played between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens in New Orleans.

Since 2010, the Chronicle has won APSE’s top honors for its daily section (2010 and 2013), its Sunday section (2010) and its special sections (2010), to go with two more honorable mentions (2012 and 2013).
